Good sound, problem features
May 13, 2012
I got this monitor to listen for my newborn while playing outside with my toddler. We tried it out tonight while we ate dinner and the baby was resting in her room. I had the base on the nightstand and she was in her crib across the room. The sound was very clear without static. I wish the base took batteries for more options for placement in her room. Also, the nightlight feature is very nice but you have to switch the whole unit on for the light to come on, even though it has a separate switch. Not that big a problem since it has to stay plugged in. Another minor negative, once the batteries are in the parent unit you pretty much need a screwdriver to get them back out! Another positive is the parent unit and the base are very lightweight, even with batteries in the parent unit. Overall pleased so far and hoping the reception stays clear when I'm using it outside. Also hoping it doesn't drain the 3 AAA batteries too quickly as I don't think I'll ever use the parent unit plugged in.
